International customers & Returns
Under the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations (DSRs), you have up to 7 working days starting the day after you have received your delivery to cancel your order. This does not apply to certain "exceptions" specified at section 13 of the DSRs, including goods made to your specification, clearly personalised goods, audio or video recording or computer software if you remove the seal, newspapers, periodicals or magazines or goods which by reason of their nature cannot be returned or are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly or any items that are in list of exclusions.
For all international returns (including the EU) you will be required to complete a customs declaration. Please mark your customs declaration label as "Returned Goods" with a customs value of Zero. This is to inform customs that the parcel is a return only and not an order that we have placed. Communion Angels will not be liable for customs charges on returned items so if the parcel is not marked as returned goods, Customs will return the parcel back to sender as an incorrect declaration.
Further details of your right under Distance Selling Regulations are available from your local Trading Standards department or Citizens Advice bureau.
RETURNS FROM OUTSIDE THE EU must be labeled ‘Returned unwanted GB merchandise’ to avoid import duties
